Answer to Question #201610 in Management for monice

Question

state whether you think H&M and Starbucks are being socially responsible and why

Answer 1

H& M is socially responsible company as it uses some eco-friendly materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester in some products. The brand was also among the first to stock a 'Conscious' sustainable fashion collection in its stores. H&M's Conscious collection is currently made from at least 50 per cent sustainably sourced materials, such as organic cotton and recycled polyester, apart from in the case of recycled cotton, which currently only makes up 20 per cent of a product due to quality restraints

Starbucks is socially responsible because it has a long-standing commitment to sustainability, and as part of our ongoing aspiration to reduce waste and become a resource positive company, we are continuously looking for ways to better manage our waste in stores and in communities; and developing more eco-friendly operations, from stores to supply chain.
